TruckTrax Update Center
Welcome to the TruckTrax Update Center! This is where we will post information about updates and what you can expect to be different about your new version of TruckTrax.

Since TruckTrax will automatically update itself with a support plan, you should never need to run a update or worry about TruckTrax staying up to date. Since this will happen periodically as we enhance the product we want to provide you with a single location to get the new features explained. Check this space occasionally or after an update to see whats new!

03/01/2007 - Windows Vista Update
TruckTrax information for Windows Vista support.

Details
When attempting to install TruckTrax on Windows Vista it is possible that errors will occur and the installation of TruckTrax will fail to complete successfully. While we are aware of this situation, we are working to fix this issue as soon as possible to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Customer Support.

01/22/2007 - Update 7022
All previous versions of TruckTrax will upgrade to version 1.0.1.7022.

This update fixes several issues in the Reports for TruckTrax.

Details
Bug Fix: This update introduces a new Report Dialog box for selecting the specific month, quarter and year for all reports (more information below on the Report Dialog) and eliminates those reports which the user was "prompt" for information. There is also a fix for duplicate records showing on some reports. If you have any questions about this update, please feel free to contact Customer Support.

The Report Dialog has 5 buttons; Print, Preview, View, Reset and Cancel (see image below). The "Print" button allows the user to print a report without having to preview it first in TruckTrax. The "Preview" button will bring up a preview of the report for the user. The "View" button will simply allow the user's selections to be transfered back to the main TruckTrax screen for viewing. The "Reset" button will change all the selections the user has made in the Report Dialog back to those when it originally opened. And the "Cancel" button will close the Report Dialog and TruckTrax will not attempt to load the chosen report. Also, at the top of the Report Dialog the user can see which report was selected in TruckTrax, and at the bottom the selections made by the user can be seen.

Please note that not all selection areas will be available to the user. If a monthly report is chosen, only the Year and Month selections will be available, where as if a quarterly report is chosen the Year and Quarter selections are available, and finally only the Year selection is available when an annual report or tax report is selected in TruckTrax.

08/28/2006 - Update 6232
All previous versions of TruckTrax will upgrade to version 1.0.1.6232.

This update fixes a reported problem in the Manifest screen. The Pickup City and Dropoff City were not being set properly when returning to the Manifest screen from other screens, such as the Fuel screen.

Details
Bug Fix: When returning to the Manifest screen from other screens, such as the Fuel screen, the dropdown boxes for Pickup City and Dropoff City would reload all the current cities, but not properly change for the currently selected manifest. This could cause the Pickup City or Dropoff City to be overridden when making changes else where in the manifest.

The changes in this release are relatively minor and should be applied during normal update processes. There are NO feature updates in build 6232.

08/26/2006 - Update 6231

This update fixes a reported problem with the update process in build 6230. There could be a problem during the download and upgrade process, TruckTrax would "Hang" and not complete the installation of the updated files. This has not been reported as a widespread bug, but could create a situation that would require a reinstall of TruckTrax. (Thanks to JR for reporting this quickly and working with our support team to get this worked out!)

Details
Bug Fix: During the update process, an issue could cause TruckTrax to "Hang" on start up. We have updated TruckTrax to allow the update process to continue in this situation and complete the update.

Bug Fix: During testing we discovered an issue on the Manifest grid that can occur when NO records have been entered into the month and you select New from the menu. We have added logic to fix this issue.

The changes in this release are relatively minor and should be applied during normal update processes. There are NO feature updates in build 6231.

08/22/2006 - Update 6230
All previous versions of TruckTrax will upgrade to version 1.0.1.6230.

This update is a bit complex, we added a feature for placing multiple manifests on a load and allowing for the proper Operations Metric calculation when you are hauling more than one manifest at the same time. (Thanks to Kathy Heffner for the suggestion!)

Details
Added: A check box on the manifest form that places that manifest as part of a load.
Added: A box for you to place the load number (some companies will call it shipment number) associated with a manifest.
Added: The load number to the grid list of manifests.

Bug Fix: Found a problem with the updater program. This issue creates a problem with getting NEW updates to your software to you. To fix this we are releasing a NEW updater program. This change will mean the updater has to update itself. (Confusing, I know) So you will see 3-4 updates go by. This will be confusing and will take a few minutes. You will see multiple updates and there will be times when your computer will look like nothing is happening. This is only going to happen with this release and once you are updated to build 230 the updater will work as before. Please be patient and if you have any questions contact customer support.

Depending on you internet connection, this update may take a few minutes to run. We have to download a few support files that are a bit large.
